Took the Boss in today for its first service. The car has only 700 miles on it so it was a "yearly service". There were no issues to attend to, so it was just an oil and filter change.
Boss #1804 is the first domestic vehicle I have purchased in 30 years. (My last domestic purchase was a 1982 Mustang GT).
The GM of the dealership knew that I was a "nervous nellie" and that I was concerned about having a competent service experience. He hooked me up with a service advisor with a 14 year history with the dealership who personally drove the Boss to the rack. They also hooked me up with a technician with 12 years experience with the dealership.
What a service department eye opener. The dealership service department was full of trucks.
Expensive trucks.
Heavy duty trucks.
F250's, 350's, 450's.
The trucks I saw were not work trucks. They were lifted trucks. Bling trucks. Chrome trucks. I do not think they saw much labor.
The dealership-North County Ford in Vista (San Diego area), also contracts with local police departments for service. I asked my service advisor how they test drive those police vehicles. He says they put "out of service" labeling on them.
I walked the sales lot while the Boss is being serviced. They have just a few new 2013 Mustangs, but they are sold out of Boss' and GT 500's.
They have some new all electric vehicles, that I was not even aware Ford made. $42000. Not cheap.
Those of you who have the opportunity to purchase a new Boss or GT500 at MSRP, count you blessings.
The isn't much to choose from in SoCal, and what is available has an ADM.
I walked through the truck lot. I know NOTHING about trucks. The trucks were $50K to $60K.
OMG-I no idea. I must say a $50K truck has a nicer quality interior then a Boss Mustang.
All in all, the service experience went just fine.
